Press On, Victory Is Sure
F. F. Camp writes from Chelsea, Vt.: “Over eight years have passed away since I made up my mind to leave the traditions of men and fully heed the teachings of God's holy and blessed word, and strive with all the heart to be a Bible Christian and go through with his people to mount Zion. And now while reviewing the past and striving to ascertain what advancement I have made I can say to day that I thank God with all my heart that I have been led out here step by step into the glorious light that shines so brilliantly upon the pathway of the remnant. The truth looks more beautiful than ever, and I love it better and expect to be sanctified through perfect obedience to not only the commands of God, but also the teachings of our dear Saviour. I trust the time is near when we shall hear more about the last part of the third angel's message. How often when I have been hardly beset by the enemy, overwhelmed with darkness and almost driven to despair has some precious promise been sweetly applied to my heart, and I could say with one anciently, Surely the Lord God is a sun and shield; he will give grace and glory, and no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. Look up ye weary and oppress who are sighing for deliverance. Your redemption is near. Press on! Victory is sure. Home is almost in sight. Cheering thought, eternal life is before us, and is it not worth giving all for? Let us so run that we may obtain, not a corruptible, but an incorruptible crown, which Paul says the Lord the righteous Judge will give to him in that day, and not to him only, but to all them that love his appearing.”
